Gaint Phyllodes Tumour with Axillary & Interpectoral Lymph Node Metastasis; a Rare Presentation: ConclusionManagement of Phyllodes tumor presents the surgeon with challenges. Core tissue biopsy is a reliable method for pre-operative diagnosis. Imaging like CT scan and MRI help to evaluate the primary lesion as well as distant metastasis. The majority of these cases can be managed by simple mastectomy. Axillary lymph node metastasis is rare and dissection should be limited to patients with pathological evidence of tumor in the lymph nodes. (Source: International Journal of Surgery Case Reports)
